洪升《长生殿》传奇第38出《弹词》(《男弹》),在宫调、套数、格律、板式等方面,都直接继承自元佚名杂剧《货郎旦》第4折《女弹》。《女弹》主要以曲的形态流传,而《男弹》则剧坛、曲坛两擅。清中叶至近代,《男弹》笛色渐变,由小工调、尺字调降为尺字调、上字调,渐成定式。这是宫调调式意义渐衰、笛色兴盛的体现,也与《男弹》的剧情、行当相关,同时可能受到清末京剧发展的某些影响。 The 38th “storytelling” (“bombshell”) of the Legend of Hong Kong’s Palace of Eternal Life directly inherits the fourth woman’s “bombshell” from Yuan An anonymous animated drama “Shek Pao Dan” in terms of palace tone, number of sets, metrical patterns and slabs. The “female bomb” is mainly circulated in the form of a song, while the “male bomb” is both a theater and a song altar. From the middle of the Qing Dynasty to the modern era, the “male bomb” flute gradient changed from a minor worker to a ruler. This is a reflection of the gradual decline of the tone of the palace and the rise of the flute. It is also related to the plot and operation of the “male bomb,” and may be affected by the development of the Beijing Opera in the late Qing Dynasty.
